Sorry about just posting a link, but NPN only allows images at 720 pixels at the long end..
Images are 750pixels.

Finally finished my gallery of Ancients (Bristlecone Pine) trip.

Enjoy

Hi Eric, I visited your link a couple times today and really liked the upclose images of the Bristlecone tree bark or skin if you will. I also noticed you obtained the same results I did with the sky at those elevations going really dark. I had a few images almost go black at the 12k level......thanks for sharing. :wavey:

Eric,

The Bristlecone forest is one of my favorite places! Thanks for the very images from there! Like Paul, I think the wood detail shots are very nice. I think in some of the others better light would have proven beneficial. Having been there on a few occassions, it can be tough to get really fine light. You did well!

Your writeup is nice, too. There's good info there.

Good job!
